Now, let’s take a look at how to add Angel One account in Stocks Developer.

Our system integrate with Angel Broking using their Smart API. Hence, you must generate an API key by registering to Angel Broking Smart API.

Platforms

Angel account can be onboarded in following ways:

• SMART_API => This integration uses Angel’s Smart API & it is the recommended platform
• SMART_API_M => This integration also uses Smart API, however it uses OAuth based login which requires you to manually login into your account once in a day before you start trading. This approach does not require your trading account credentials.

We have given below details of each platform.
